I farmed and built a villa in ancient times

Chapter 150

Last night, Zhou Chenyu was thinking about dealing with Qian Rushan, and she fell asleep unconsciously from exhaustion. This morning, she woke up when her forehead hit a copper plate cold outside the bed.

There was another banging sound from the window, and the whistling autumn wind sneaked into the room through the gap.

"It's not winter yet, why is it so cold?" Zhou Chenyu stretched out his palms from the quilt and rubbed his face. The sky seemed to be much colder again. The room enclosed by the thin wall was like a refrigerator. Except for the quilt wrapped around it, It's cold everywhere.

The clothes were still hanging on the wooden rack, two meters away from the bed. Zhou Chenyu struggled in the warm bed for a long time. He heard the sound of splashing water coming from outside the yard. It must be Li Xiuju working again.

She hurriedly opened the quilt and hurried out of the room.

Li Xiuju was sitting by the well washing the fresh mint leaves she had just picked. When she saw Zhou Chenyu walking out with clothes on, he looked worried.She said, "You haven't even put on your clothes yet. Why are you in a hurry? Don't look back. Mom is fine. You have caught the cold again."

Zhou Chenyu walked over, scooped up water and washed up, and said in a helpless tone, "Do you know why I'm anxious? I see, you didn't take anything Baoyu said to you before he left. Baoyu will wait a few days. When I come back, I will definitely file a complaint with him."

Li Xiuju smiled helplessly, "I'm going to the city later. If I don't make some food, why don't you go hungry? I'm here for you, how can you beat me up?"

"Tsk." Zhou Chenyu smiled, looked at the black smoke coming out of the chimney, and raised the corner of his mouth, "What have you cooked?"

"Didn't we dig some sweet potatoes and sweet potatoes a few days ago? Mom cooked some." Li Xiuju shook off the water stains on the mint leaves and washed them a second time with a bucket of clean water. "When you finish washing, I will use Make a sauce with these mint leaves and eat it while it’s hot to keep it delicious.”

"Okay." Zhou Chenyu quickly washed his face and followed Li Xiuju into the kitchen.

There was still a little spark left in the stove to heat the pot. She sat there to warm her hands. Li Xiuju took two small bowls, mixed the chopped mint leaves, chili powder and sauce together, then opened the lid of the pot and stuffed it. Open it again after a while.

The scent of mint mixed with soy sauce entered Zhou Chenyu's nose, and her sense of smell was suddenly heightened, "It smells so good."

"Really? It smells good." Li Xiuju got a low stool, turned it upside down, with the four legs of the stool facing up, then lifted the whole pot out of the stove and put it on the low stool, "Here, have a taste."

Zhou Chenyu looked at a pot of taro balls, each of which was about the size of an egg. She took one while it was still hot, brushed off the rough skin on the surface, took off the bottom, dipped it in the sauce, and stuffed it into her mouth.

The heated sauce seeped into the soft taro, and it tasted salty and spicy. She ate it and her whole body warmed up.

Zhou Chenyu kept thinking about it, "Yeah, it's delicious."

Li Xiuju smiled slightly and said, "Mom, I know you like to eat. These little taros should be eaten with the sauce when they are freshly taken out of the pot. They won't taste good when they are cold. Eat them quickly and eat more."

"Yeah, okay." Zhou Chenyu ate one after another. He had only eaten large taro before, but he had never tried eating it this way, especially the mint sauce after heating, which was neither too salty nor too salty. It's too light, and coupled with the aroma of cooked mint, the taro tastes different instantly.

Mother and daughter ate most of the taro in the pot, but they couldn't eat any more, so they put it back on the stove.

Zhou Chenyu sat in front of the stove and drank two cups of hot water. After resting, he stood up and said, "Old lady, I'm going out. You should be careful at home alone."

"Don't worry, mother is not a child." Li Xiuju stood up and looked at the gray sky, wondering if there would be heavy rain.

She stood up holding her knees and walked into the house, "It's you, I see there are a lot more clouds today than yesterday, it might rain. Shen Yu, you'd better bring an umbrella before going."

"umbrella."

Zhou Chenyu didn't want to bring it, but he remembered the umbrella given by someone, and followed Li Xiuju into the house. After taking the umbrella with him, his mood affected by the weather became better.Today is another market day in Qingshui Town. Pedestrians can be seen everywhere on the road into the city, including people walking alone and people meeting together in twos and threes.

Zhou Chenyu was holding an umbrella and walking alone among the crowd. He was not lonely at all.

"Sister Qinghong, wait for me."

Zhou Chenyu was walking slowly, and a female voice sounded behind her. She heard the name the person called, but she was not familiar with it, so she ignored it and continued to walk forward.

But after taking two steps, the girl who called someone caught up and grabbed her arm carelessly, "Sister Qinghong, I've already called you, why don't you..."

Zhou Chenyu looked blankly at the face that suddenly appeared. When the girl saw her appearance, she blinked her eyes in panic and quickly let go of her hand, "I'm sorry, sister, I...I recognized the wrong person."

"Look, I told you to slow down and wait until you see the person clearly before calling. Look, you recognized the wrong person. Did you make a mistake?" The young man behind slowly walked forward, scolded a few times, and then pulled him again. The girl smiled and faced Zhou Chenyu, "Girl, I've offended you. I, the older brother, apologize to you on her behalf."

Zhou Chenyu glanced at the young man, and then at the young girl's green face. He couldn't get angry anymore, smiled and shook his head, "It's nothing, I was just a little frightened, it doesn't have much impact."

The man knocked the girl on the head, and the girl winked at him and hid secretly to his side.

The man looked at Zhou Chenyu again and murmured lightly: "But girl, you look quite similar to the Qinghong my sister mentioned. No wonder I recognized the wrong person."

resemblance?

Zhou Chenyu raised his eyebrows, "Really?"

The man smiled and bowed to Zhou Chenyu, "Girl, we don't know each other until we fight. If you don't dislike me, would you like to be friends with me?"

Make a friend?

Zhou Chenyu glanced up and down at the young man. He had fair skin, handsome appearance, and was dressed elegantly and cleanly. He didn't look like a country boy, but rather like a young man from a well-off family.

Anyway, it’s not something like a mountain of money.

She blinked and nodded, "Of course."

After receiving the permission, the man was ecstatic, "My name is Zhao Yunhe, and my little sister's name is Wanjun. May I ask her her name?"

Zhou Chenyu looked at him, pursed his lips and smiled, "Hello, my name is Zhou Chenyu."

"Chen Yu." Zhao Wanjun held her brother's arm and jumped up with joy. Her mouth felt like it was filled with honey, and her face did not change when she praised others. "Sister is so beautiful. She really looks like a fish sinking like a wild goose."

Zhao Yunhe laughed for a while, blinked and said seriously: "Miss Chen Yu, you should be going to the city too, right? The same is true for us two brothers and sisters. Can I go with you, so that I can be your companion and take care of you?"

Zhou Chenyu looked at him calmly, "Okay. However, I can't stay with you for too long." She smiled brightly, "Because when I enter the city, I have to find my sweetheart."
